## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*2019-07-10, version 1.0*

This app is terrible - it just accesses camera. No instructions, nothing that allows an overlay. Totally needs more development!!!!!!!!!!

### 3/5 — Okay if image doesn’t need to be resized

*2023-03-14, version 1.3*

Cool app but don’t like that you can’t resize the overlaid image. Other than that though the app would’ve been perfect for what I was using it for

### 3/5 — Perfect App! But it doesn’t work in landscape mode?

*2022-09-25, version 1.3*

This app provides what I need exactly but how can I do I in landscape mode?

### 3/5 — Not bad! Missing crucial feature

*2018-07-24, version 1.0*

This app does exactly what it advertises, it just lacks the ability to load a file from your camera roll. If it gets that, five stars!

### 5/5 — Soooo so helpful!! 🥹

*2025-10-28, version 1.3*

Ive been struggling a lot with drawing poses, but this helped so so much!!! Every other app has some pesky, annoying charge and won’t even let u use ur own reference, so this is extremely refreshing!! 10/10 would recommend 🤩

### 5/5 — Great free tool

*2025-09-05, version 1.3*

I am an art teacher and recommend this to my students.

### 5/5 — Great

Easy to use and free

### 5/5 — Recommended

*2022-11-04, version 1.3*
